Description
Summary:To evaluate the effectiveness of percutaneous monoplanar screw internal fixation via injured vertebrae for treatment of thoracolumbar fracture. Between May 2015 and August 2017, 38 cases of thoracolumbar fractures without neurological symptom were treated with percutaneous monoplanar screw internal fixation via injured vertebrae. There were 22 males and 16 females, aged 25-52 years (mean, 32.5 years). There were 23 cases of AO type A3 and 15 cases of AO type A4. The injured vertebrae located at T in 4 cases, T in 9 cases, L in 11 cases, L in 10 cases, L in 3 cases, and L in 1 case. The mean interval between injury and operation was 4.5 days (range, 3-7 days). The pre- and post-operative degrees of lumbodorsal pain were estimated by the visual analogue scale (VAS) score. The X-ray film, CT three-dimensional reconstruction, and MRI were performed, and the ratio of anterior vertebral body height and sagittal Cobb angle were measured to assess the kyphosis of the fractured area. All operations in 38 patients succ
